Around 100 Lille fans arrested due to public disorder

The French side's supporters "caused public order offences, lit flares and provoked violence," the Dutch police indicated on their official Twitter account. 

The arrests were carried out at Standvliet metro station, close to the Johan Cruyff Arena, which later caused the station to be evacuated. The incidents caused the station to be closed for 30 minutes, although service has now been restored. 

Those detained were transferred to the police station by the police, who will identify in the coming hours, the fans who caused the violence.
